Documentation Officer by Eva
revoke motions m20140515.3 and m20140518.4
optional: install a DocumentationOfficer
- original request was: provide the name of someone responsible for this tasks
reason: Role of DocumentationOfficer is required by our policies and as far as policies are concerned is distinged of the role of PolicyOfficer in PoP
reason: Role of DocumenataionOfficer probably an audit-requirement
reason: PolicyOfficer does not accept the additional workload (and sees a CoI because of PoP)
- reason: there is a WiP policy for this post (COD3)
- reason: there is a volunteer for this post as the role was defined for a while
mail on board public mailinglist: https://lists.cacert.org/wws/arc/cacert-board/2014-05/msg00026.html
revoke motion m20140515.8 by Eva
revoke m20140515.8
- reason: board probably has no right to come to such a finding
- reason: the motion contradicts itself - most people reading it as that there is doubt about the neutrality of said person, while it starts to state the contrary
- reason: to come to such a motion without hearing or correctly informing the member and without any rational is unfair treatment
- reason: it looks like one of the votes may not be counted because of CoI
reason: it should be no reason to doubt someones neutrality if one declares that 3>1
